Minneapolis, Minn., March 27, 2012 – More than 500 flesh-hungry “zombies” will invade Lake Calhoun in search of their next human meal on May 6 for a 5K fun run to benefit a Minneapolis-based non-profit.
The inaugural ‘Survive Twin Cities: A Zombie Fun Run’ will start at 8 a.m. and go along the Midtown Greenway, ending at Lake Calhoun. This 5K fun run will be an adventure for both runners and spectators of all ages, so make sure to come!
Minneapolis-based non-profit, Cūra Earth, is the primary organizer of the event. 100 percent of proceeds from the race will go toward Cūra Earth’s programs in Nicaragua.
